ISSAC 2013

The International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation is the premier conference for research in symbolic computation and computer algebra. ISSAC 2013 is the 38th meeting in the series. The conference traditionally presents a range of invited speakers, tutorials, poster sessions and software demonstrations with a centre-piece of contributed research papers.

ISSAC 2013 will be held June 26-29, 2013 at Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts, USA

Conference topics

ISSAC 2013 invites the submission of original research contributions to be considered for publication and presentation at the conference. All areas of computer algebra and symbolic mathematical computation are of interest. These include, but are not limited to:

Algorithmic aspects:

Exact and symbolic linear, polynomial and differential algebra

Symbolic-numeric, homotopy, perturbation and series methods

Computational algebraic geometry, group theory and number theory

Computer arithmetic

Summation, recurrence equations, integration, solution of ODEs & PDEs

Symbolic methods in other areas of pure and applied mathematics

Complexity of algebraic algorithms and algebraic complexity

Software aspects:

Design of symbolic computation packages and systems

Language design and type systems for symbolic computation

Data representation

Considerations for modern hardware

Algorithm implementation and performance tuning

Mathematical user interfaces

Application aspects:

Applications that stretch the current limits of computer algebra algorithms or systems, use computer algebra in new areas or new ways, or apply it in situations with broad impact.
